cidr classless internetwork domain routing
Hi,
We were reading about CIDR but couldnt find any information about the explanation.
Does anybody know how it exactly works?
Thanks in advance.

These links should help. Essentially, it's just a different way of showing a subnet.

Also CIDR disregards IP class boundaries. So 192.168.0.0/16 is just as valid as 192.168.1.0/24

The ever helpful TCP/IP Guide is one of my favorite resources for beginners on this type of thing.
